Nice one mate. I was thinking of buying and your review has sealed the deal so I ordered them.

Mike Scullion Thanks bud. Thats great too hear. Glad l could be off help. Thanks for watching 🤙🤙

[@HuntShootOffroad]

Thank you great review. Was good to watch a video that wasn't titled a review but was actually an unboxing!

[@Grantmi1_trailrun]

Excellent review. I have the same lenses and I am a trail runner. I have the Radar Ev Advancer with e vented lenses and a bridge that pushes the glasses out from face for more venting. Love them but these jawbreakers look great. Didn’t realize they are also vented. Accurate description of lens performance.

Most helpful video, many thanks!

Great job showing the clearness of the photochromatic lenses. Thanks! Everything looks sunnier? I certainly need this in rainy Hannover!

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

Thanks for the nice comment. Really appreciated. I always feel unsure when making review videos. I imagine the weather there is pretty much the same as here in Scotland, although l think you get more sun. 😎 They are a great addition for those duller days. The prizm cover most days but sometimes its just too dark for them. Thanks for the support. Ride Safe brother. 🤙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@dylanbooth78]

on the soft microfiber bag the bit you said was a hand hold is actually the top of the second compartment designed to hold a second lens! I just got some of these but with the prizm road lens and the low light lens and so far I am very impressed! thanks for the good review.

Nice! I'm giving Shred Optics goggles a try. Only one ride on them as of right now. Those look really nice though, really versatile.

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

The semi Rad Dad they are awesome, really comfy and surprisingly rugged. A tad expensive though. Thats the only downside.

[@driftlessareasingletrack2933]

I've used transition's lenses for years, usually just use the old prescription for riding. They don't get near as dark as regular sunglasses but if you're in the trees its actually better. When I lived out west and used to ride in the desert all the time dark shades were mandatory. I'm going to get something new this spring with their extra active lenses that do darken more, start off with slight tint but will also darken in the car. Definitely another pair of OAKS though. They just stay on really well. thanks for the review.

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

No problem dude. Glad you likes it. I still wear these everytime l ride.

[@driftlessareasingletrack2933]

@@trailsfromthedarkside6460 I looked for the Jawbreaker in a prescription lens and can't seem to find them. thanks again for the review.

Awesome video I was just kind of curious how are they for Scratch resistance I just wrecked a set of mudhugger's glasses in like a couple of months thanks 🤙🤙

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

Hey there bud. So far theyve been fine. No marks yet. Dropped them a few times and wear them every week. I am careful with them but they do still get chucked in my bag. I love them. Hope that helps dude. Thanks for watching. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🤙

Tempted to buy...

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

Thay are good. Cheaper now than when l bought them as well. Treat yourself. 😎😎

[@davidefavero8271]

what' s the difference between simple photocomic and iridium photocromic?

[@mrsherlockholmes1968]

Thanks for the video. May I ask about wind protection? I'm mostly road biking and now have to wear contact lenses....so I'm on the lookout for shades which do not allow wind inside - thus drying out my contacts... Cheers!

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

Hi David, l wear these when Down Hilling so l’m also keen on keeping the wind out. As l say in the video, l really can’t fault these glasses. I’ve never had any wind issues and whilst pedaling they stay super clear, only fogging once stopped, then clearing again. Due to the lens coverage, l don’t think you would find any problems with the wind getting in. If you don’t want to risk the money, they do sell copys on ebay, you could try for a ride and check the wind, then get the real ones if happy. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@pinstripebanditt]

photochromic lenses be best for night cycling

[@pinstripebanditt]

or prism road with pink lenses

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

@@pinstripebanditt l think the prizm lenses would be too dark for night time, l use the Photo’s for the darker days. I can’t say how good they would be at night time though, l’ve never used them in the dark. I think they may be a bit dark for that also, you can get just clear lenses for them that don’t change colour, they would probably be best for night rides. Hope that helps.

[@frederikvaneeckhout6751]

Nice review mate! Do you have inserts for you're sunglasses or are you wearing lenses ? Grts

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

Hi Frederik, the glasses are just standard, no inserts or lenses, Although l should wear lenses l think, just never got round too it. Thanks for watching. Ride Safe. 🤙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Thanks for the support. They are the just Trail Prizm. Awesome lenses. Ride Safe. 🤙😁

[@clintondavies8098]

I'm ready to buy a pair of these from your great review do think the carbon fiber is the best looking? 🤔 I've seen them in navy blue and carbon they are the only 2 colours left in stock

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

I like the carbon. It’s kinda low key from a distance but cool up close. Blacks always a go to colour. Thanks for the support. Enjoy your new glasses. I still wear mine every time l’m out, two years later. Ride Safe dude. 🤙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@clintondavies8098]

Thanks for your advice 👍😁

[@SC-gm4fw]

Can I ask do the Photocromic lenses come with the trail prizm as standard or did u pay extra?

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

Hi Shane. No, had too buy them seperate. The glasses came with the Prizm lens and l bought the Photo seperate. About £40 if l remember. Hope that helps.

[@SC-gm4fw]

Cheers mate, thanks for that. If u had to choose one of the lenses for everyday use which would it be? Trying to decide between both as Im in Ireland and would use them for both Mtb and road spins so similar weather to yourself.

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

Thats a hard one mate. I wear the prizm most off the time so l would say them, they make everything look great but on the cloudy dark days they are a bit dark, hence the reason for the two pairs. If l defo had too choose one, l would go Prizm. 🤙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@teufelhunden4087]

My problem with most of my glasses is that I tear up, especially when I'm going fast. What is your experience with this lens? I'm a little bit worried that those fog vents will make me tear up.

[@trailsfromthedarkside6460]

Teufel Hunden l have had zero problems with that. The vents are far enough away from the eyes so l don’t think thats a problem. The vents really only work after you’ve stopped riding. After a hard section they fog up when you stop. But once you start riding again the clear straight away. As l say l wear these eveytime l ride. I love them. Hope that helps.

Do they fog up

They do fog up once you stop, but when you start pedalling again the clear almost instantly. Never a problem on the trails.
